Hi, 'true_name' is a list of numerical, matrix, and text items
I do pass_name <- "true_name" and pass the name of the list to a function so that the character class variable 'passed_name' contains the name of the list called 'true_name' Inside the function, how can I get a specified element from the list? For example, if I want to get true_name$month How do I get that item with the passed name? Thank you for any help!
